The 3 Step Music Game:

1) Visit this site and check who was number one when you were born (Starts from 1950, so anyone older then 58 lucks out :cb )

A Better Link (but only going back to 1953) is Number One Songs

2) Visit Youtube and do a search for the song

3) Post it here :thumbright:

I go back too far, but I think Whispering Grass by the Inkspots was in the Hit Parade, where's Woody he'll help me out, 'though he's not that old really. :lol: :lol:

I added another link in the first post that gives #1's from 1953 in UK ...but from 1940 in US - so maybe worth trying that :lol: (even goes far back enough for stods!! (just :wink: ))

Trouble with this game is you play the linked song and then click on a load of others and before you know it - another 30 minutes gone :-P

Have to go - some more MOTR to play :lol: (they were a good band :-) )
